Scoliosis q! Please help!?!
Question:
Scoliosis q! Please help!?
How much can scoliosis possibly worsen in 3 months? (in degrees)
Any example will be appreciated.
I have a 34 and 37 degree curve and im getting it checked tomorrow. Ive had scoliosis for at least 3 years. Do you think it can get over 40 ? :P
How much did yours or someone you know gain over a period of time ?
Btw im 13 turning 14.
Answers:
well..generally speaking thoracic curvature over 30 degrees with low Risser Sign has about 90% chance of progression...
whether you are going to be one of the 90% or other 10% depends on case by case basis and there's no way to predict here..
Guess you'll find out soon enough...
If it is progressing, I'd suggest wearing brace if you are not wearing one already...there are corrective devices now which are much easier to wear...check out www.myscoliosis.net
